Gang of Three is a powerful tribute to the iconic English post-punk band Gang of Four. Formed by a shared love for the raw energy and political edge of the originals, Gang of Three brings the sound, spirit, and message of Gang of Four back to life on stage.
Gang of Four emerged from Leeds in 1976, blending punk rock with funk, dub, and razor-sharp political commentary. Their groundbreaking debut album, Entertainment! (1979), is widely hailed as one of the most influential records of the post-punk era. It was ranked #5 on Rolling Stone’s list of the greatest punk albums of all time and #273 on their 2020 list of the 500 Greatest Albums of All Time. With its mix of jagged guitar lines, driving rhythms, and lyrics that took aim at consumerism, war, and inequality, Entertainment! remains a landmark in political music.Gang of Three channels that same stripped-down intensity and angular funk, delivering faithful renditions of Gang of Four’s album Entertainment! in its entirety.
Whether you’re a long-time fan or new to post-punk, Gang of Three offers a high-energy, thought-provoking live experience that captures the urgency and innovation of Gang of Four’s revolutionary sound.
